I've searched high and low to resolve an issue. In another program I can see the text for the field "Encoder:" see screenshot

If the field is treated by MP3tag and can be edited by MP3tag then you find it in the extended tags dialogue (Alt-T).  
Not all properties can be edited by MP3tag. Such properties are usually addressed in MP3tag by variables starting with an underscore, e.g. %\_tool%.  
You find a list of read-only properties and their variables in the help on export:

If you provide a DL link to your example song, we can have a look what kind of tag this could be.  
You can send it by PM, if you prefer.
